Good ambience. Chose a la carte not offered menu, though apparently also available on Sundays at €20 €14 on weekdays . Indifferent food especially given prices charged. This restaurant is one of the very few open in Briviesca on Sunday, so if you are hungry, it's Hobson's Choice!

I started with scrambled eggs, with ham, then a good local stew, followed by a coffee cheesecake, plus a reasonable wine, water and bread. Unfortunately, one of our children wanted a coke rather than water for which (somewhat unusually in our experience) they charged separately. For the la carte, it is a three....or perhaps if you have a fussy child like us, it is a three for kids. Our boy really only wanted a child 's meal like pasta. At €13 for 8 rich croquetas and €12 for 7 ravioli, albeit with nice cheese and chestnuts inside, neither of which he finished, we felt that we didn 't get good value.

It was the Menu del Dia with three courses, wine, agua con gas and coffee for 32 Euro. Everything we had was delicious. Two nights ago we paid more for a terrible Menu del Dia meal and another time paid twice as much for a much inferior a la carte meal. It was a Wednesday night and we were the only people there but the atmosphere was still fine. Would definitely recommend the Menu del Dia.
